In February President Donald Trump endorsed Vernon Jones for Congress in a special video announcement on Wednesday.
Vernon Jones, a former Democrat, is running in Georgia’s 10th congressional district.
Vernon has ALWAYS stood with Trump and MAGA nation against the radical Democrats who are destroying the nation we love.
Vernon officially joined the Republican Party in January 2021 after serving in the Georgia House as a conservative Democrat for years.
I’m proud to have President Trump’s endorsement, confidence and support as I seek to represent the people of Georgia’s 10th Congressional District. America First movement is alive and well! The squad better get ready! pic.twitter.com/lNXeC6Uucr

Jones pointed out the similarities between him and Trump in a Tuesday tweet.
The same Big Lies and Fat Smears used against Donald J. Trump in 2015 and 2016 are used against me.
I’m honored but do better, @MikeCollinsGA!
Hell, they even call me the Black Donald Trump! Bring it on, liars!

Obviously, not everyone is happy for Vernon Jones’s political success.
Over the weekend Vernon Jones received a vicious death threat posted on his website.
The person threatened Jones, repeatedly called him the n-word, and threatened to see him hanging from a tree.
We decided to publish the online threat without any editing. Warning on language.
Here is the threat.
And here is the registered name on the account.
We have confirmed from the Vernon Jones campaign that the campaign is investigating this racist threat against Vernon Jones.
We are not speculating on the source of this threat at this time.
